Ok, the script was timing out. If you got the source it will time out at 10 minutes but I didn't add that as well to live one until now.

If you can, use it from the source as the bandwidth will run out soon.

Still doesn't work for me, but I don't want to waste any more of your bandwidth.

Thanks.

I added caching and made some optimisations. I can load your cover at 1280x1024 with a cover size of 130x130.

If it's better optimised I'll grab the new version. :)

Is it on the same link?

Yes, it's the same link. Without caching it's about 4x faster and with it it's about 10x faster at 1024x768. It also now uses JPEG so pumping out a 4000x3000 size image is quite smooth.

Nice one!

I'd already altered it to create a jpeg image but your optimisations sound impressive.

Is there a switch to enable/disable caching?

Anyway I'll thank you in advance as I'll grab the new code this evening when I get home from work. :)

It not only works now, but it's FAST! I did 1280x768 with a cover size of 128x128 (perfect fit), and it was almost instant.

Thanks! :)

Oh wow! I've just tested using the code on Dave's server and boy it is fast!

That's a hell of an improvement. Thank you :)

Don't worry, I'll upload to my server tonight so I'm not poncing any more of your bandwidth. ;)

Brilliant, dave. But it seems as if the album order / content is randomized, since every run of the scripts creates a different image.

That's the idea, you can comment out the randomisation code if you like.

Thanks for the feedback, I'm out of bandwidth at the moment but I'll have it up somewhere soon.

My BG isn't randomised and I didn't edit anything.

Is the randomisation already commented out on the code you supplied?

No. Only version 0.1 doesn't randomise the position of the cover art.

Hmmm. Strange

I have the second version of code you supplied.

Well of course I'll check when I get home.

Perhaps I accidentally knocked something when I was messing with it. :)

hmm i tried to run it on my osX apache with php but all I got was garvled text. I'm guessing my browser didn't recognise it as an image? anyone else have this? It's the same in Safari as in FireFox...

Sounds like a GD lib problem to me. What version of PHP is your server running?

Mac OS X v10.4 comes with PHP 4.4.1, and doesn't include the GD libraries. If you try to run it you'll get a fatal error at line 126.

If you saw garbled text, there was probably a warning (possibly at line 75) and the resulting image couldn't be displayed as the file was already sent as text/html content.

Have you modified the code in any way at all?

If there are no warning or error messages, then the Content-Type: image/jpeg header is not being sent for some reason, as even if it wasn't a valid JPEG header as it is above, no garbled text would appear. You could get the Safari WebDevAdditions and see exactly what HTTP headers are being sent.

I've got new hosting, so feel free to use the hosted script at this temporary link.

I stil can't figure out why my background doesn't randomise! :s

I'm using version 0.2 Released 2006-06-13

Still looks cool though! :D

Here's mine: http://simhum.freecoolsite.com/albums.jpg

It's too small for a desktop wallpaper by design as I use it as a background to this page

I can't figure out why your image wouldn't randomise... Are you sure your browser is just not caching the same image? Using the link above, your image randomises. Does it for you using that link?

It randomises for you?!?

I'm using FireFox and ctrl+F5 to force a refresh and it's the same image every time.

Wierd!

It's not a big deal as I epxect the image will change each time my overall charts get updated but it does seem strange. :/

I've added some headers to ensure the image isn't cached, although I'm not even sure that's the problem, caching CGI generated images wouldn't appear to be a good idea anyway.

The last link you provided does randomise for me.

Where I've editted your code to default to my username and preferred x / y dimensions I expect I've crippled the randomisation code.

I'm a total novice when it comes to PHP so I can't really see which part randomises the output though.

Not a biggie though :)
